We’re Obsessed with These HIDDEN Details at Cafe Megara on the Disney Destiny

By Leave a Comment

The Disney Destiny, the latest ship from the ever-expanding Disney Cruise Line, is just about ready to for guests, and we got to see some of the ship’s NEW elements up close during a special preview cruise! The ship, which will have its maiden voyage on November 20th, is themed to Heroes and Villains, and be based on “on the legacies of beloved Disney stories, characters, and theme park attractions” according to the company.

Cafe Megara

For the Destiny, Disney’s Imagineers were “inspired by the dynamic duality of every great Disney story when developing this new ship, where opposing forces of light and dark drive characters to rise to their purpose.” That theming carries through to the ship’s dining areas, including Cafe Megara, based on Meg from Hercules.

Universal Confirms MAJOR Changes Coming to Epic Universe Park

By Leave a Comment

Universal Orlando has changed A LOT in the last year. I’ve been visiting for over 30 years now, and with the possible exception of 1999 (when Islands of Adventure, CityWalk, and the first Universal hotel opened), there has never been a more transformative year in the resort’s history, thanks to the opening of Epic Universe and its three hotels.

Wizarding Paris

This massive expansion is changing everything about Universal Orlando, from how many days it takes to see everything on property, to how the transportation system works, and even the Holidays. That’s right, Christmas at Universal is about to get… Epic.
